282–The Royal Beta And His Sister

Nora:

‘That’s why a home is so important. But where is my home?‘ I was so sad that I couldn’t call any place my permanent hom

‘Akira! Please talk to me,‘ I pleaded, worried about her sudden absences. She would emerge whenever she wanted and then disappear ever since we arrived. It was concerning, or maybe it was due to the heartbreak she had received from her mates.

I recalled the way they had treated me—it was still fresh in my memory. But look at me; I was the only one ready to forgive them, even when they weren’t begging for forgiveness. I just felt like I needed to go back home. Something about this pack’s atmosphere made me feel suffocated. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

After taking a shower, I slipped into a blue top and white pants, braiding my hair on one side. Once I left the room, I felt lost.

There were maids and omegas bustling around, doing their chores, but no one really acknowledged my presence. They were purposely avoiding me.

However, the moment I reached the ground floor, I came across the royal beta, and I slowed down to have a word with him.

“Rollo, right?” I smiled, trying to interact with him politely. If I could befriend some people here, maybe it wouldn’t feel so awkward.

“Yes? What do you want?” His hostility caught me off guard, and

it took me a second to gather my strength and composure again.

“Oh, I was looking for Brody. Where is he?” I looked around, and when I glanced back at him, I found him frowning.

“Alpha Brody!” His correction startled me. “He had to join Jerry for some serious matter.”

“What happened? Is everything okay?” Since Lord Atwood had let me ask questions and the brothers usually discussed these matters at the dinner table, I thought I’d be informed about things here as well. But Rollo was so hostile that he seemed annoyed whenever I opened my mouth, and I hadn’t even spoken much.

“These are confidential issues. I don’t think it would be appropriate to share them with you of all people,” he said, placing his hands on his waist, his eyebrows furrowing as he ostracized me in a single sentence.

“Excuse me? And why would that be?” I just wanted to be sure I was hearing him correctly.

“You’re associated with people we cannot trust in our pack. I hope you understand what I mean, and if you don’t, then maybe you should get out of your little world and learn about the issues of our pack

since you’re now a member of this pack.” He placed a finger on his chest, then pointed it at the ground, using a harsh tone with me.

“So, you’re implying that I’m a traitor?” I folded my arms over my chest, fed up with his rudeness.

“I didn’t say–,” before he could continue, I cut him off,

“And I did try to learn about the issues of this pack. Just a minute ago, and what did you say to me in response?” I kept my eyes on his face to catch the look of utter embarrassment for contradicting himself.

“You are taking my words out of proportion,” he seemed lost now that he was being confronted for his hostility. Such a big and broad guy, yet he was lacking manners and a working ain.

“And from now on, if you misbehave with me, Mister Rollo, I’ll be very serious when I drag you before Brody–” I said his name without a title. Not because I didn’t respect him, but because we were too comfortable around each other to use formalities.

He had no choice but to look away and surrender.

“He’s not just your friend. My brother and he have been friends too. So be careful when you badmouth us,” I should have known this girl would appear again. Clara arrived, holding a bunny in her hand and gently patting its head as she deepened her eye contact with me.

“Clara!” her brother gave her a sad pout. Why were they acting like I had stolen something from them? And why was she roaming around the mansion like she owns it?
